Day 183 - 189: I Am Not Selected

Date: 3 MARCH - 9 MARCH 2009

On the 3 March I got to know that I did not even got through the first round of the selection for the Best Job in The World. Was a little disappointed but oh well, what to do? Life still goes on. Not selected means that I can travel longer!!! YEAH!!! Although if selected, I get paid to travel but who cares? Life still goes on. Everything happens for a reason!!

On the 5 MARCH, I encountered the first hail of my life!!! Check it out.



Here's a photo of the hailstones.



You seldom get a clear blue sky in Manchester. It is usually very gloomy. However, that was the case on the 6 March and so we went out for some fun in the sun at a park nearby.

Who says a normal digital camera cant take great shots? If you know your camera well enough, yes you can!!

















I even managed to capture a bee hovering just above the flower. Nice shot, I thought.







More closed up on the bee.







Here's a shot of the hovering bee taken by Clayton.



Spring's coming and all the flowers are blooming. These flowers are so beautiful that after making pictures of them, we lazed in between them.









until....



Until I saw a shit infront of me!!!!





Not close enough? ZOOMING IN!!!!



Wahahahaha... I know, its shitty!!!!

Okok.. enough of lazing around. Its Boomerang time!!!!



















Here's a video of me VS Clayton in the game of Boomerang. Lets see who managed to throw a returning boomerang and than catch it.



For the rest of the days till Day 189, 9 March 2009, I spent it just on updating my blog. Yes, I have been staying in Manchester for too long! Thats why I am moving my ass. Finally. I am going to DUBLIN, IRELAND tomorrow!!! I am going there for St. Patrick's Day!! WOOOOH!!!! Stay tune!!

Day 182: Sightsee Manchester

Date: 2 MARCH 2009

Clayton has to go for classes today and so I went sightseeing Manchester with Jimmy. Although I have been in Manchester for quite awhile, I havent seen much of it yet. Manchester is an industrial revolution town and so most of the buildings you see here are made of red bricks.





Looking at all these colourful rainbow flags, we know that the first street which we passby in town is Canal Street aka Gay street aka Anal Street.





Chinatown of Manchester



Photos taken outside the tourist information center.











If I remember correctly, this is the city hall but I might be wrong.



























The Famous John Rylands Library.



























Since we are inthe town of industry revolution, how can we not take a look at the museum of science and industry? But as I am more interested in motorcycle, I took mostly photos of vintage motorcycles. HeehEe.















Leaving the museum, we reached a nice river with brigdes over bridges. Lovely, I thought.

















The Hilton hotel. A very unique building which the top of the building is bigger, wider and heavier than the lower half.



Went back to the shopping area.



Walked passed a bra shop and was surprise to see 2 cute little birds in its window. What has these 2 birds have to do with bras?!?!



And than right next to the 2 birds lies a sign which reads, CUP SIZE AVAILABLE, A-H. WTH!!! CUP H?!?!? Would that be bigger than my face?!?!?!?



Leaving the bra shop but not forgetting the humongous CUP H, we went to meet up with clayton and went for some round and soft stuffs. Heeheehee.



What were you thinking? Krispy Kream LAH!! Dont be ditry minded ok.











Afterwhich, we meet up with Leonard, Sharon and Daniel and we went to the usual restaurant for dinner.



And after that we sent jimmy back to his hotel. But Wait whats that? A motorcycle shop!!





At Jimmy's hotel, Clayton trying to be an air steward.



Kinky Clay.



Big nice room.



Even the toilet is huge.





Me taking all the shots.





Lastly, someone passed this to me on the streets today. Guess I am sexy, thats why. WAHAHAHA....
